Description
The 32" Edge 540 was designed by Twisted Hobbys and David Kyjovsky of Rc Factory for a beginner or the experienced 3D pilot wanting to fly in small areas.
Part of our Standard Mono Series, it is among our easiest and most durable models to build and fly. Lightweight construction, pre-hinged control surfaces, and a carbon-fiber truss system provide excellent rigidity, precise control, and responsive performance during hovers, harriers, rolling maneuvers, and aggressive aerobatics.
Key Features:
• Created in collaboration with Twisted Hobbys team pilot Chris Jewett
• Lightweight and durable printed EPP profile construction
• Designed for responsive 3D and aerobatic performance
• Pre-hinged control surfaces help simplify assembly
• Carbon-fiber truss system provides additional airframe rigidity
• Adjustable control-rod end links help reduce unwanted control play
• Controlled low-speed handling with quick aerobatic response

Great
Picked this up as a warm up and park flyer 3d practice plane.. once you get it trimmed up and the cg right, it flies like a knife. I enjoy flying this as much as the big planes to be honest… going to order another. This 32” size is just right imo for park flying. I had the veloxity 42” model and it was just a little too big with people around at the park to have in the air.. this 32” wont cause any damage.. and doesn’t attract too much attention. Recommended. Also any wind under 10mph is ok.. still gets tossed around but controllable and great for practice. Any higher of winds you’d be fighting to keep it stable

32" EDGE 540
I built this airplane a year and a half ago. Wasn't skilled enough for 3D back then. It hung on the wall collecting dust. Just took it out this weekend and fell in love with it. Basically does what you tell it to do. A real confidence builder. Rolls straight and level. Lands like a feather. Great 3D airplane. Love it.

540 twisted edge 32”
This is my 3rd twisted plane. An incredible flyer that will hone your skills with stick time. These planes are perfect to practice anytime/ anywhere. This transfers to flying the bigger machines at a fraction of the cost in the event of kissing the ground. You will not be disappointed

Backyard Fun
First 3D plane I've owned and first plane I've built from a kit. I've only been flying two months but already getting into aerobatics pretty heavy. I fly everything at the ragged edge of my personal skill (and if that allows, the model's flight envelope). Wanted something cheap and tough to push my skills with. Very pleased with the performance. Normal aerobatic maneuvers are easily kept within a 160' box with slow/3D moves kept within half of that. Very responsive and easy to save. Belly lands from a harrier with no gear just fine. I haven't even started to touch this plane's full potential in 10 flights on 2S. Handles wind great up to about 6 mph for me. My only complaint is that some of the servo cuts on the Edge weren't done at the factory like they were on the Yak shown in the build video.

Edge 540 32"
I have been out the the hobby of several years and this is the first plane is a while. Building was good as long as you what the videos. Written instruction are just OK. Just complete its maiden flight and love this plane. I highly recommend this plane.

32" Edge 540
My first 3d plane and all I can say is amazing in every way. This little plane is easy to see with its bright red color scheme. It can be flown extremely slow or very fast depending on your desire of the day. The roll rate is insane with nothing added but aileron & high rates. Indestructable is probably one of the best features. For some reason TWISTED HOBBIES FOAM is superior to any other I have tried or flown. The foam may crack of get distorted but that is an easy fix. Very light equals little damage which equates to more flying time. I have been flying with .95mah nanotech 2 cell batteries which I find give you much more flying time with a bit more punch. Vertical? Yes yes yes.It can hover, dance, go straight verticle & I can even stop in mid air. I am old school. No gyros or stabilizers for me.Just a few thought to sway you to go 3d 540 Edge. You will not be disappointed.
